After receiving the instructions, Wu You, whose shoulders were on the door, freed up a hand, and entered the answer into the blank space one stroke at a time.
Just after entering the first color, Wu You keenly felt that the floor under his feet was disintegrating.
Realizing the danger, Wu You's fingers trembled uncontrollably, so Wu You had no choice but to lean his entire arm and wrist against the door.
There was a crackling sound, and a crack appeared from one side of the intact floor they were stepping on, and it split straight towards the middle.
At this moment, An Wujiu's mind went blank for a moment, and it would be a lie to say that he was not worried, as the suspension was close at hand, and his heartbeat was getting faster and faster. In an instant, a hand grabbed his hand, it was Shen Ti.
Shen Ti stretched his hand behind his back, grabbed An Wujiu's injured hand, avoided his gauze-wrapped wrist, bent his arm at an emergency, and placed it between him and his chest.
The cracks keep extending.
Wu You entered the last word, and the door beeped twice.
"Josh! Open the door and try!"
"good!"
The crack reaches the other end of the floor.
[D03, welcome back! ]
The door opened inward, and the floor under his feet collapsed almost in the next second.
Seven people narrowly escaped danger at the last moment.
At the most dangerous moment, it was impossible not to panic, but at that time, An Wujiu was held tightly in Shen Ti's arms, and there was no time for his body to react. It was Shen Ti who led him into the room, and finally fell heavily on the ground at the door of the room.
But he didn't feel any pain, because Shen Ti put himself on the bottom to cushion An Wujiu to the greatest extent, and his injured wrist did not suffer a second injury under Shen Ti's precautionary measures in advance.
Feeling that he hit him badly, An Wujiu felt a little guilty, but also a little touched, with complicated emotions, so he immediately got up and pulled Shen Ti up from the ground.
"It's dangerous..." Josh supported the wall in the door, feeling his feet were weak.
The outside of the door was like a cliff, and the murals on the wall were covered with a hot red light by the magma, almost melting. The room was dark, illuminated by firelight. It's a little smaller than the room in the Angel's Corridor, with desks and bookshelves that reach the ceiling, but no monitors.
An Wujiu was full of tasks, pulled Shen Ti up and started searching, and found two mini hard drives on the desk, with [E06] and [E07] labels printed on the hard drives, it seemed that they belonged to them. But appearing on this floor is a bit weird. There is also a box on the table. When the lid is opened, there are some small cards inside, which are immature handwriting of children.
The situation was urgent, so An Wujiu put the micro-hard drive into his pocket and picked up the box as he didn't have time to take a closer look.
Yang Erci took a look at the countdown within his field of vision.
time is limited.
"Quick, the key is on the top shelf."
The two red-covered books on the top shelf contained a key. It was said to be a key, but in fact it was a rainbow-colored key card, which gave off a rather faint light in the dim room.
Zhong Yirou, who was in a semi-comatose state, seemed to have recovered a little. She raised her hand and pointed to the back of the bookshelf, "There is a ladder there..."
A long, narrow telescoping steel ladder rests against the wall.
Just as Wu You was about to step forward, an extremely fast figure flashed past his eyes, like the wind.
"Get the ladder out and set it up in the hallway."
It was Shen Ti's voice, with a calm tone different from his usual, giving instructions at the most critical moment.
He jumped upwards, and with a flick of his outstretched arm, he directly removed the rainbow "key" stuck on the top shelf.
At the same time when Shen Ti's feet landed on the ground, amidst the shock, Nan Shan, who had been drowsy, suddenly coughed violently, and fell to the ground crookedly along the wall.
Wu You and An Wujiu are pulling out the retractable steel ladder. Seeing that Nanshan's reaction was not right, Wu You was worried that his medicine was not ready, "I'll go and have a look."
Josh came forward to help. The ladder was quite heavy, and the two of them pushed the ladder outward together.
The ladder was placed on the ground by them, and Josh, who was near the head, squatted at the door, slightly sticking his head out, looking out, a gust of heat surged upwards, although the gate of the circus was not far from here, it always felt close.
"Is this really within reach?"
An Wujiu half-kneeled at the end of the ladder, and kept pulling the telescopic ladder out, while estimating, talking very fast, "The corridor is about 2 meters wide, our room is different from other rooms, it is two rooms. The extra one in the middle of the door, so the distance is greater than one room and less than two rooms. I noticed before that the distance between the two doors in the corridor does not exceed 3 meters, so the maximum distance between the two doors is 3.6 about meters."
The ladder got longer and longer, and finally reached the end.
"This ladder is four meters wide, it must be enough." An Wujiu held the right side of the ladder, found the right angle, asked Josh to hold the left side, and the two slowly pushed the long ladder out.
One end of the ladder continuously extends in the direction of the circus.
On Wu You's side, he put Nanshan flat, and rescued Nanshan according to the method Zhong Yirou said.
"Loosen his clothes... let there be air."
Yang Erci and Shen Ti also stepped forward to hold down the part of the ladder that was still inside the door, stabilized it, and helped them send the ladder outward together. The outward end of the ladder was getting closer and closer to the gate of the circus. The surviving slabs are only a meter or so apart.
"Loosen your neckline, or you won't be able to breathe..."
Wu You did as he did, but when he unbuttoned the collar of Nanshan's overalls, he discovered an extremely strange thing.
There is a blue-purple strangle mark on Nanshan's neck.
A chill surged up, Wu You looked at Zhong Yirou, the firelight illuminated her face brightly, as if she was sitting under the afterglow of the setting sun, her eyes moved down to her neck.
It is exactly the same strangle mark as Nanshan.
"What's the matter? Come on, put two hands on his chest..."
Wu You's hands were numb, to the point of numbness. He nodded, answered, and then put his hand on Nan Shan's chest. Before he could press it down, Nan Shan coughed and opened his eyes.
"Ahem..." He subconsciously raised his hand to grab the hand on his chest, as if grabbing the last straw.
At this moment, Wu You finally woke up, helped Nanshan up and sat down, "Are you okay? You..." He also held Nanshan's hand behind his back, trying to feel his temperature.
There is not much temperature difference with oneself.
What the hell is going on with this strangle
The distance is shortened a little bit.
The top of the ladder finally landed firmly on the floor in front of the circus.
"Okay!" An Wujiu sent the ladder out again to make the bridge more stable, "Shen Ti, you go over first, and hold the other end of the ladder after you pass."
Shen Ti refused his command.
"I'm last, you first." After finishing speaking, Shen Ti threw the card he got before into Josh's hand, "Follow him, open the door and go in."
An Wujiu found that whenever danger was approaching, Shen Ti would become extraordinarily calm, even indifferent.
Indifference to death.
So he also turned to other objects, "Josh, you go there first, hurry up."
Josh saw the pushback between the two, and he also knew that he had a heavy responsibility.
"Okay. I'll wait for you over there."
In this way, Josh, who was originally the most timid, was the first to walk onto the bridge built with steel ladders. Under the bridge was flaming magma, and if he was not careful, he would be doomed.
The ladder wobbled a little, and Josh knew that they were supporting him at the other end, and he kept comforting himself in his heart, almost walking over with shaking legs, but his hand held the rainbow key firmly and firmly.
This is everyone's hope.
"I'm here!" Josh yelled with his back to them, and gave others confidence. He put the rainbow door card against the sensing position of the gate, and sure enough, the opposite circus gate slowly opened inward.
"Successful!"
The first time Josh walked in, he turned around and squatted down, pressing the other end of the ladder with both hands, "Hurry up!"
An Wujiu didn't move, but ordered the others to pass in order, under his request, Shen Ti followed Nan Shan who had just woken up, just in case, Wu You supported Zhong Yirou and followed behind him.
Everyone left, only An Wujiu was left, he looked at the countdown.
There are still ten seconds.
At the last moment, An Wujiu picked up the box containing the card and stepped onto the long ladder. Since there was no one at the other end to stabilize the tail, the ladder wobbled, so An Wujiu could only move forward quickly.
Suddenly, the door behind him also collapsed, and the whole door fell down into the bottomless magma, igniting a big fire.
"No fault! The floor is also cracked, hurry up!"
Before Josh could finish his sentence, An Wujiu felt that his feet were empty, and out of his first reaction, he threw the box in his hand towards them.
The end of the ladder fell down.
"don't want-"
At the last moment, Shen Ti clung tightly to the top of the ladder. He didn't know why he could burst out with such great strength in an instant, and he didn't have time to think about it right now.
An Wujiu's hand also firmly grasped the rung of the ladder, hanging above a sea of flames.
The mechanical skeleton endowed him with grip strength and endurance beyond ordinary people, otherwise he would not be able to grasp it at all, nor would he be able to hold it down.
"Climb up."
Hearing Shen Ti's voice, he tried his best to put his feet up the ladder, and finally stepped on it. Under the dragging of Shen Ti and others, the ladder did not fall down, so An Wujiu climbed up little by little like this.
Finally, at the last second of the countdown, An Wujiu's hand stretched upwards, tightly gripping the edge of the floor.
Shen Ti stretched out his hand towards him and pulled him up.
The ladder fell heavily, splashing sparks all over the sky. Shen Ti looked at An Wujiu, obviously exhausted, his first reaction to escape from death was to laugh.
An Wujiu gave Shen Ti a weak but thankful smile, that beautiful face was against the light, not very clear, only a pair of eyes were brighter than Xinghuo.
"Fortunately, I was at the end, otherwise it would be troublesome."
Shen Ti didn't feel lucky, seeing his smile, and seeing the boxes and scattered cards on the ground at the end, even felt a little bit of displeasure in his heart, and he couldn't explain why this happened, it was unprecedented experience.
No one can control his emotions.
"You are such a lunatic." After Shen Ti finished speaking, he stood up.
It's been like this before.
An Wujiu didn't quite understand that he was surrounded by other people's great joy and rejoicing for his survival, but just because of Shen Ti's words, he couldn't sense the joy, he just puzzled his attitude.
Somewhat surprised, but An Wujiu still remembered that he had important clues on his body, he put his hand into his pocket in a daze, took out the two miniature hard drives, handed one to Nanshan and the other to Zhong Yirou.
Afterwards, An Wujiu stood up, followed Shen Ti into the circus, and asked him, "Why?"
"My status hasn't changed, why do you think I'm crazy?"
An Wujiu didn't understand why he was serious.
Shen Ti turned around and faced him with an unattractive expression, not as loose and indifferent as he used to be.
His voice was so low that only the two of them could hear it.
"Only a lunatic would only care about other people's lives."
He was stunned for a second, and soon, An Wujiu raised his eyes and looked at Shen Ti's transparent eyes, from which he rarely saw a trace of seriousness.
An Wujiu's brows were slightly frowned, obviously he was a man with a twisted heart, a person who relied on scheming to trick others into applauding, but what he said at this moment was so straightforward that he didn't hide a bit.
"You don't care about yourself, but do you care about my life?"
Looking into his eyes, Shen Ti's heart beat so fast for a moment, so fast that he finally felt that he still had such a heart.
The panic was like an invisible hand, clutching the position of the chest, it was very stuffy, and the breathing was not smooth.
"If I'm crazy..." An Wujiu looked into his heart with clear eyes, "Then you are too."
"We are each other."
There was a lump of air in his chest, Shen Ti wanted to explode, wanted to say something, but the next moment An Wujiu's actions startled him again.
The guy reached out and grabbed Shen Ti's coral earrings.
He also said the reason with a pure face, "Your earrings shake me hard."
Dangling, dangling, dangling.
It's frustrating.
Just grabbing the earring, An Wujiu felt nothing, but Shen Ti had a similar stress reaction like a cat, couldn't breathe, and coughed.
Seeing him like this, An Wujiu immediately let go of his hands, and raised his hands subconsciously, as if his conscience had discovered the culprit who planned to surrender.
The confrontation just now was forgotten at this moment, seeing that he was coughing so badly, An Wujiu was a little worried, so he put his hand on Shen Ti's back very smoothly, and patted him on the back, "What's wrong with you?"
He thought that Zhong Yirou and Nanshan both had cough symptoms, and he was very worried, "Isn't it because they were infected?"
"You...cough cough, just hope that I can help you." Shen Ti covered his mouth with the back of his hand, and coughed a few more times.
Every inch of the back touched by An Wujiu seemed to spark dense sparks, and the feeling of tiny electric current penetrating under the skin was crisp and numb.
He couldn't adapt at all, the reaction he had never seen before was very, very strange.
This body does not seem to be his own, at least not now.
The control keys were briefly taken away by An Wujiu.
"It's a little older than I thought."
Josh's voice interrupted Shen Ti's unrealistic guess. He suppressed the stressful cough, and grabbed An Wujiu's hand that was clapping on his back, tightly gripping his wrist, not allowing him to move.
An Wujiu felt that he was not a fool at all.
He can lay out his own game at the beginning of the game, and he can also solve puzzles that many people cannot solve in a short time.
But he really couldn't figure out what was going on with the guy in front of him.
Sometimes good, sometimes bad.
